Salmonella solution
Testimonial by Thompsons of York
NUQO©SAFE innovative salmonella control solution.
Thompsons of York introduced Wyreside’s new product NUQO©SAFE into their range of conventional and split feeding layer rations back in 2022. Early results indicated a good response on the farms using the products.
NUQO © SAFE (product of NUQO feed additives) is a new technology that utilizes a double micro-encapsulation approach. It consists of an outer layer made of phytogenics and phycogenics derived from plants and algae, and an inner core containing multiple organic acids. This formulation enables a controlled release of active compounds in the bird’s gut, specifically targeting the duodenum up to the colon. This enhances digestive functions and helps control gut microflora.
Results and Improvements
Several trials have confirmed the positive effects of NUQO©SAFE. In one trial, broiler chicks were inoculated with Salmonella enteritidis at day 14. The group fed with NUQO © SAFE had significantly fewer Salmonella-positive samples compared to the control group at day 21 and day 35. The NQ group also showed a better immune response, as indicated by higher levels of Salmonella IgA in the blood. Additionally, the NQ group exhibited a 1-point improvement in feed conversion ratio, indicating better digestibility and gut integrity.
Overall, NUQO © SAFE demonstrates promise in preventing Salmonella infection in broiler chickens by effectively controlling the pathogen in the gut and enhancing the bird’s immune response. This technology offers a solution for producing safe and high-quality broilers while reducing the risk of Salmonella contamination
We are currently feeding over 200,000 flocks with NUQO©SAFE and see positive results in reducing salmonella cases. We have seen a better immune response and improvements in the feed conversion ratio, showing effects on better digestibility and gut integrity. Thompsons of York
